Medium Format Film

pmonneo

Hi,
I shoot alot in digital and all that but am shooting in Medium format at the moment... Just wondering if any one else shoots in medium format.... and what film and camera they use???

Fajitas!

Have a Hassy, Mammy, and a holga, but it's all about the 4x5 for me at the moment

Film wise, usually, Ilford stock, or Fuji slide film.

Yea I'm trying silde at the moment... took some shots yesterday so i hope they turn out... 120 is great ... Have you ever scanned it...? I think i will maybe up the resolution and hope the colours are balanced well....
I'm trying Provia and reala... i only really like pro film..

shoot fuiji velvia 6x12,6x17 & 6x24
processing by metro colour lab in uk
more dificult & more hassle than digital but can be better imo
scanning on an epson 4990 I usually aim for atleast 100 to 500 mega pixel

I use a Mamiya RZ67 and a Mamiya 7 rangefinder. Ilford Panf is my slow film and Kodak Tri-X is my fast film. I also use a lot of Infrared Efke & Rollei films.

i'd love to try medium format, but my scanner (which currently doesn't work at all) only takes 35mm

Hasselblad 500C/M and 500EL/M

Kodak Tri-X in 120 and 220 would be my most used film. I've tried most of them over the years and using a bit of Ilford PanF and Fuji Acros lately.

Mamiya 645 Pro and Holga, for short period Bronica, too. For BW I use Ilford delta 100 and fuji acros (100 as well), when I need more speed i either push acros or use ilford hp5. For colour neg i really like fuji reala, and for slides only velvia...

i'm using a yashica mat 124g and a rolleiflex. as well, an old kodak brownie and zero image pinhole, all 120 film. almost all black and white, ilford, fuji, kodak film. process the film myself, then scan the negatives....

Yashica Mat 124G, Bronica SQai, a brace of old kodak folders and box cameras ...

Mostly Ilford/kodak for B&W , developed at home. Kodak for color negative, Fuji for transparencies. Just got the bronica recently so still haven't gotten comfortable with it yet. Decided on it after a long and agonizing choice between it and a mamiya RB/RZ ...

I use xp2 b&w in my holga. I will eventually get a bronica.

I've done 120 illford xp2 and processed it myself in B&W chemistry... I was using an agfa clack though with a semi-busted shutter and no lightmeter XD

am always on the lookout for a cheap medium format tho.

I'm new to medium format, love it, particularly composing in square. Currently using velvia 100, ilford xp2 and TMax100. xp2 doesn't give as good a tonal range imho.

Using a Rolleicord V picked up cheaply on eBay.

See the results here.

I develop only in repro 35 or Gunn's and then borrow a scanner, saving up for my own.
